It was the republicans that freed the blacks from the democrat slave owners, so why are most black democrats? Funny how some things never change. Democrats were the slaveowners, slavery was abolished, and now the democrats want to enslave everyone again with this healthcare reform.
Black democrats are racist. Look at the abuse Clearance Thomas received from the Black community, called an uppity black and an Uncle Tom. There was a white congressman elected from a majority black district who wanted to join the House Black caucus. he was denied. Black kids make fun of other black kids who speak good english and do well in school Here is a liberal columnist with a racist conscience: "Surrounded by middle-aged white guys â a sepia snapshot of the days when such pols ran Washington like their own menâs club â Joe Wilson yelled âYou lie!â at a president who didnât. But, fair or not, what I heard was an unspoken word in the air: You lie, boy!" - MAUREEN DOWD
Most democrats are racist. Just this year, Roland Burris, a black man, was refused his rightful seat in the Senate by Harry Reid, a white man. Roland Burris had all credientials required to take his seat but was continuosly denied by Harry Reid. After a media circus and a lot of pressure, Harry Reid finally let the black take his rightful seat in the Senate. Pure racism.
that quote from dowd is disgusting. it makes her disgusting. Nothing worse than disgusting people who write well.... Except for people who get paid to write well while distorting reality, like dowd.
A horrible article....I usally respect her thoughts.. I really think the left sees race first then people and the right sees people first then race. This is counter to commen stereotypes. Just like Dowd thinks all southern men are racist. If Joe Wilson was from North Dakota Dowd would have never written this article
No it wasn't but I was asking Meerkat. But thanks. Hardly "Black Demo's are racist..." ============================ The normally nonchalant Barack Obama looked nonplussed, as Nancy Pelosi glowered behind. Surrounded by middle-aged white guys â a sepia snapshot of the days when such pols ran Washington like their own menâs club â Joe Wilson yelled âYou lie!â at a president who didnât. But, fair or not, what I heard was an unspoken word in the air: You lie, boy! The outburst was unexpected from a milquetoast Republican backbencher from South Carolina who had attracted little media attention. Now it has made him an overnight right-wing hero, inspiring âYou lie!â bumper stickers and T-shirts. The congressman, we learned, belonged to the Sons of Confederate Veterans, led a 2000 campaign to keep the Confederate flag waving above South Carolinaâs state Capitol and denounced as a âsmearâ the true claim of a black woman that she was the daughter of Strom Thurmond, the â48 segregationist candidate for president. Wilson clearly did not like being lectured and even rebuked by the brainy black president presiding over the majestic chamber. Iâve been loath to admit that the shrieking lunacy of the summer â the frantic efforts to paint our first black president as the Other, a foreigner, socialist, fascist, Marxist, racist, Commie, Nazi; a cad who would snuff old people; a snake who would indoctrinate kids â had much to do with race. I tended to agree with some Obama advisers that Democratic presidents typically have provoked a frothing response from paranoids â from Father Coughlin against F.D.R. to Joe McCarthy against Truman to the John Birchers against J.F.K. and the vast right-wing conspiracy against Bill Clinton. But Wilsonâs shocking disrespect for the office of the president â no Democrat ever shouted âliarâ at W. when he was hawking a fake case for war in Iraq â convinced me: Some people just canât believe a black man is president and will never accept it. âA lot of these outbursts have to do with delegitimizing him as a president,â said Congressman Jim Clyburn, a senior member of the South Carolina delegation. Clyburn, the man who called out Bill Clinton on his racially tinged attacks on Obama in the primary, pushed Pelosi to pursue a formal resolution chastising Wilson. âIn South Carolina politics, I learned that the olive branch works very seldom,â he said. âYou have to come at these things from a position of strength. My father used to say, âSon, always remember that silence gives consent.â â Barry Obama of the post-â60s Hawaiian âhood did not live through the major racial struggles in American history. Maybe he had a problem relating to his white basketball coach or catching a cab in New York, but he never got beaten up for being black. Now heâs at the center of a period of racial turbulence sparked by his ascension. Even if he and the coterie of white male advisers around him donât choose to openly acknowledge it, this president is the ultimate civil rights figure â a black man whose legitimacy is constantly challenged by a loco fringe. For two centuries, the South has feared a takeover by blacks or the feds. In Obama, they have both. The state that fired the first shot of the Civil War has now given us this: Senator Jim DeMint exhorted conservatives to âbreakâ the president by upending his health care plan. Rusty DePass, a G.O.P. activist, said that a gorilla that escaped from a zoo was âjust one of Michelleâs ancestors.â Lovelorn Mark Sanford tried to refuse the presidentâs stimulus money. And now Joe Wilson. âA good many people in South Carolina really reject the notion that weâre part of the union,â said Don Fowler, the former Democratic Party chief who teaches politics at the University of South Carolina. He observed that when slavery was destroyed by outside forces and segregation was undone by civil rights leaders and Congress, it bred xenophobia. âWe have a lot of people who really think that the worldâs against us,â Fowler said, âso when things donât happen the way we like them to, we blame outsiders.â He said a state legislator not long ago tried to pass a bill to nullify any federal legislation with which South Carolinians didnât agree. Shades of John C. Calhoun! It may be President Obamaâs very air of elegance and erudition that raises hackles in some. âMy father used to say to me, âBoy, donât get above your raising,â â Fowler said. âSome people are prejudiced anyway, and then they look at his education and mannerisms and get more angry at him.â Clyburn had a warning for Obama advisers who want to forgive Wilson, ignore the ignorant outbursts and move on: âTheyâre going to have to develop ways in this White House to deal with things and not let them fester out there. Otherwise, theyâll see numbers moving in the wrong direction.â
i used to wonder this too. but, the civil rights movement morphed into a revolutionary movement. cloward piven........van jones....and these latest videos of the acorn workers in Baltimore and DC actively helping a white person subvert the law, community, and the system. the hard left wants the same thing. "deconstruction is justice" is a slogan used quite a bit. look at the subversive christ art, gay marriage, revisionist history from columbus day, and thanksgiving, and environmentalists. when you have a society that doesn't respect its past, there are limitless options for the future. but, i believe it is merely about "taxing" the system as much as they can.........they view it as a form of reparations i suppose. i live in the south.......and there is a huge % of blacks that just want the american dream and are happy and not bitter....but, they just go along with the crowd when it comes to politics because they really don't care (which is proof this is still an incredible country) - but when you ask them about specific issues - they line up almost 100% with conservatives.
